Re: Looking for Chart of Ascii Characters

Re: Looking for Chart of Ascii Characters


Many apologies. Once again I have let myself down by not accurately
conveying the meaning behind my words.
I shall start over....

Hi,
I am in search of a chart that gives a list of all possible characters
within the text realm as well as the Exact keyboard input required to
achieve this. An example of this would be a square � . I stumbled on
this by chance. The keyboard input to achieve the � is 0911 with the ALT
key held down. I have seen quite a few others such as a tre' kewl smiley
face and a heart but I have yet to discover the required typing need to
produce them.
